Where can I see more of this “Corvette man?” Also why isn’t he an 80-year-old man driving 45MPH down the freeway like every Corvette owner I’ve ever seen?
A friend of mine in his 60s (I think) has a Corvette. Automatic. And he drives it like grandma on her way to church.
I understand that cops are going to be happy to pull over a Corvette. But you can still go the speed limit. And you don’t have to cruise under the speed limit in the middle lane… Basically, he’s the kind of driver that irritates me.
There’s a surprisingly large number of (new) Corvettes in my region, so you wouldn’t have to look long. However, they are mostly owned by middle aged white men who like to speed (but not enough to warrant having a sports car).
Where I live it seems that all the Corvettes are owned by young men who live with their parents. Shitty jobs and their whole paycheck goes to the car’s bank note.
Rich kids get their cars bought for them by their parents and it’s not usually a Corvette. A $90K car with no down would have a monthly payment of $1500 or thereabouts, just barely affordable for a young person with a shitty job. Having your puny net worth tied up in a sad “super” car is definitely poor people shit.
Nobody should be driving crazy enough to need a sports car on public roads. That’s insanely stupid to do. If they can afford the sports car, they can afford some track days.
My sentiment remains the same. Those cars have plenty of performance to get in to trouble on public roads.
Track days are not expensive unless you completely turf your car, so even the advice remains completely valid. Don’t drive like a jackass on public roads. Period.

When I had my corvette I was sniffing rails off the cover of a CD driving 100+mph everyday…

You probably live in an affluent area because that’s some rich people shit

Sports car doesn’t mean that in America. It just means a sporty cart. Like a flashy midlife crisis car.

Every car in America is too powerful.
Audi A3 has at least 2.5l engine. Why? Fuck knows.
Either way, having a powerful engine shouldn’t excuse someone driving like a jackass. Hilarious people are downvoting being a responsible human being.
Absolutely no question about that.
But even slow drivers are dicks.
Maybe we should abolish cars altogether.
